This is the first year I did not get any germination from my lettuce and spinach. We had so much rain since March. I normally for the last two years I been planting my seeds for spinach and lettuce in the middle March. Because the gardener on KZread said to do this and it worked. But this year it did not work

Wow lettuce needs light?
